An Ideal to Strive For

I watched the movie, Man of Steel, over the weekend.  Tom Brindley had encouraged me to enjoy Superman's dilemma of not being of this world, but being in this world.  I was not disappointed.  Read the review link yourself and enjoy it.

In this movie Superman gets to talk with his biological father, Jor-El, by way of a hologram/near-sentient computer program.  Jor-El explains the "S" on Superman's chest is a different letter in Krypton' s language, and it stands for hope.

Does the symbol of your company stand for hope?

Jor-El further encourages his son, Kal-El (Superman), "Give the people of earth an ideal to strive for.  In time you will help them accomplish wonders."

How are you giving your employees, Clients and vendors "an ideal to strive for?"

An organization that does these two things well while managing their finances prudently is unstoppable.

It is Monday.  ACCOUNTABILITY TIME!  (You should have done the following, at a minimum, in your Sanctuary time since late last Friday.)

  1. Review your 2014 goals.
  2. How did you do on your 3Strands last week?
  3. If you have defined your 3Strands for this week?

Stay on track.   Email me if you need help.

P.S.  Here is one additional thing to do during your weekly Sanctuary time:  Review your company culture cornerstones (mission, values, and vision) at the start of your quiet time.  How well did you demonstrate them this past week, and do you need to plan ways to incorporate them into your activities this week?
